Among others, the Life and Times of Reuchlin, the Father of the German Reformation. We have received a copy of this work. It embodies the principal matter of the work by Mayerhoff, is written in a fine style, exhibits a view of the state of religion and literature in Germany prior to the reformation, and represents Reuchlin in an interesting light. It is well worthy to be read by all, in connection with D'Aubigné's History of the Reformation, to which it forms a fit introduction. It will soon be issued from the press in this city.-Kühner's Greek Grammar, announced in our April No., as to be published at Andover, has been translated and issued in London.

Dirine Attributes as exhibited in the Grecian poetry: considered with special reference to the attribute of justice, and the strong impression left by the primitive belief upon the ancient mind. By Tayler Lewis, Esq., Professor of Greek, in the University of New York 81.

Moral deterioration of language, and change in the application of terms 84. The epithets applied by the Greeks to their gods, have a sub- limity and purity beyond their mythological signification 85. The three aspects of the attribute of justice, as revealed in the Old Testament, may be traced in allu- sions to divine justice, in Grecian authors 89. Import and use of the terms Δίκη or Θέμις. Νόμος and Νέμεσις 92. Heavenly ori- gin of law and government,

A pantheism in- compatible with a personal Deity 372. Fatalism 374. Defences of the theory 375. On this system, no moral accountability 379.
